Midnight In A Perfect World Lyrics

Insight, foresight, more sight
The clock on the wall is a quarter past midnight

By dark of moon
You came into the garden of my heart
Planting seeds of love

Midnight, midnight, midnight, midnight

Now, now, now, now, now, now
Ah ooh
Twelve o'clock
Ah ooh
Rock, rock, rock, rock the midnight rush
Ah ooh
Ah ooh

Now, now, now, now, now, now

Midnight, midnight, midnight, midnight

By dark of moon (the midnight rush)
You came into the garden of my heart
Planting seeds of love
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Now, now, now, now, now approach-, now approaching, now approach-, now approaching
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now approaching midni-
Now, now, now, now, now, now approaching mid-
Now, now, now, now approaching midni-
Now, now approaching, now, now, now, now approaching midnight
